Summary
This review examines advanced technologies for removing microplastics from wastewater, assessing their effectiveness, scalability, and limitations across different treatment contexts. Developing better removal methods is critical because conventional wastewater treatment cannot fully stop microplastics from reaching rivers, oceans, and the drinking water supply.
Study Type
Environmental
Microplastics have become a significant environmental concern due to their persistence, potential to accumulate in aquatic ecosystems, and ability to infiltrate
